Features 16 previously unreleased selections.
The Texas Country Blues Guitar of Mance Lipscomb is presented here from two recording sessions. A) from our first meeting in the summer of 1960 in Navasota, Tx. - all previously unreleased, and B) from an April 1966 session in Berkeley - much of which was first issued on our LP 1033 but with several unissued selections added including a rather remarkable stories entitled "Segregation Done Past". Mance Lipscomb influenced many folk artists like Bob Dylan, Taj Mahal, etc. during the 1960's & 70's when he appeared with many of the stars at folk festivals. He called himself a "Songster" and mastered an extraordinarily large and varied repertoire reflecting the full range of rural Texas African-American culture as well as many pop songs and fiddle tunes.
